At De Beers Group our purpose is to Make Life Brilliant.
We believe that a sustainable business is purposeful, competitive, resilient and agile – it’s a business that thrives through both economic and social cycles. By understanding the context and listening to stakeholders we stay ahead of evolving trends and provide the solutions to societal expectations. By solving the physical challenges of mining through relentless innovation, and constantly searching for more responsible ways to do business, we are changing the way our employees and stakeholders experience our business – creating enduring value for all stakeholders. Sustainability is at the heart of our decision-making – it is how we do business.

The role is accountable for implementation, monitoring and continuous improvement of safety systems, enabling safe production and operational delivery.
We consider all risks to people and the environment before proceeding with any activity. We address risks before beginning any activity, even if this means stopping a task. Zero Harm is always our goal.
We are exhilarated by the product we sell, the challenges we face and the opportunities we create.
Being united in purpose and action, we will turn the diversity of our people, skills and experience into an unparalleled source of strength.
We will always listen first, then act with openness, honesty and integrity so that our relationships flourish
The people whose lives we touch, their communities, nations and the environment we share, all matter deeply to us. We will always think through the consequences of what we do so that our contribution to the world is real, lasting and makes us proud.
We will find new ways. We will set demanding targets and take both tough decisions and considered risks to achieve them. We will insist on excellent execution and reward those who deliver.
